Tropical spiders

All the spiders you see here were photographed within Malaysia - mostly in the Peninsula. Only a couple of them were photographed in Sabah (East Malaysia, Borneo), either Danum Valley, or Maliau Basin.

A huntsman spider with house centipede prey! Can't recall ever seeing a house centipede fallen as prey before! Peninsular Malaysia.

A Scutigerid (house centipede - Scutigeridae) with huntsman spider prey. Not only the Scutigerid has up to 15 pairs of legs, the legs can be curled up to grab its prey too! Night find, Selangor, Malaysia.
